    Maybe we can add an address that we don't care about so that other members can directly contact us privately. eg The Lounge[^]

    // TODO: Insert something here

      If someone doesn't mind to get contacted through privatelly, then you should see: in all his / her forum messages. When you write an email using that option, the other person will get the message with the email address you used to register here in CP. If he / she wants to answer back using the email... voilà. You have successfully started a private email conversation :)

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

        Nope, it's only available for Protectors. Look in your homepage, the "Privileges" tab; near the bottom is the "Have the ability to send direct emails to members in the forums" option.

          If a user has this checked in his own settings, the "email" link appears right to the "reply" link... doesn't it? I have received emails from people that were not protectors or with very very low reputation. I can't check because I have no other account and if I log off, then I see nothing, not even the reply. Only the "sign in // view thread" options

            I think it changed in the last couple of years. It's quite likely it was being abused - you know what kind of people we get here sometimes.

              Yeah I know, those kind of emails were the one or two messages from people with very low reputation I got ;)

                I think it did not changed basically. Before a longer time, it was enabled by the default. What then changed before some years (1, 2, 3?) was, that value was set back to disabled and one has to enable that option expliciltely.
